An electronic module includes a first wiring board, a second wiring board, and an intermediate connection member. The intermediate connection member includes an insulator, a plurality of first wirings supported by the insulator and arranged at intervals in a second direction intersecting a first direction, a plurality of second wirings supported by the insulator and arranged at intervals in the second direction, and a metal layer supported by the insulator and interposed between the plurality of first wirings and the plurality of second wirings so as to oppose the plurality of first wirings and the plurality of second wirings in a third direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction. A part of the metal layer sandwiched in the insulator is bonded to one of the first wiring board or the second wiring board by a conductive first bonding member.

Devices and methods for a sealed electrical connector are described herein. Some embodiments include a spring connecting a first PCB to a second PCB, wherein the spring includes a first end portion in contact with the first PCB, a second end portion in contact with the second PCB, and a middle portion extending between the first end portion and the second end portion, a spacer surrounding the middle portion of the spring, a first seal seated in a first groove of the spacer and in contact with the first PCB, and a second seal seated in a second groove of the spacer and in contact with the second PCB.

A shield for a cable attachment system for attaching a cable to a component having a ball grid array (BGA). The shield may comprise an outer conductive surface, a first end configured to be coupled to a surface of the component, a second end that receives the cable, and an inner non-conductive material received within the shield adjacent the first end and encasing the connection of the cable to the BGA of the component. The cable may be configured to be coupled to the BGA of the component.

Embodiments of connector-less modules and associated platforms employing the module. The module employs a Land Grid Array (LGA) comprising an array of LGA pins on the underside of the module PCB that are configured to engage respective pads patterned on a motherboard or system board PCB by applying a downward force to the module PCB. A novel clip assembly is provided to apply the downward force, while also aligning the module PCB (and its LGA) to the motherboard or system board PCB. A heat shield is provided that is configured to be disposed over the module PCB to facilitate enhanced thermal spreading and lowering thermal resistance both towards the heat shield and the PCBs. Example modules include a WWAN module and an NVMe SSD module. The module PCB may employ an M.2 form factor or other form factors.

In the case where as a communication means among two or more control circuit boards corresponding to an on-vehicle environment, a wire harness is mounted, space-saving efficiency and assembly efficiency pose problems. When a board-to-board connector is utilized, arrangement of the control circuit boards cannot freely be performed, due to restriction of predetermined specific dimensions. An electric-power conversion apparatus includes a cooling device having a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a hole penetrating the first surface and the second surface, a first control circuit board provided at the first surface side, a second control circuit board provided at the second surface side, and a pin header having a mold portion that partially wraps a connection pin penetrating the hole so as to connect the first control circuit board with the second control circuit board and that is fixed to the cooling device.
